Snow Day Part II

What does a photographer do on a snow day? These past couple days have been lovely, as I’ve done “just-for-fun” things as well as productive things. Wednesday morning, my roommate Sam made delicious cinnamon rolls for us = a great way to start a snow day! I made a list of business goals for myself as I dream about what next year may look like, I snuggled up in bed with a stack of books at my side, and made puppy chow!

On Thursday, after the blizzard had passed, I ventured out to take some photos. Brrrr! I think the news said it was -16 degrees! That’s the kind of cold air that burns when I breathe it in! It was so fun driving around town, looking for scenes to photograph. I loved these swings, covered in snow! The bottom right photo below is actually a car underneath all that snow! Ugh, what a dreadful task that person has before he/she can go anywhere! Mmm, I love this one!

Favorite! I think this one might end up on my wall somewhere…

A cozy scene. This is my roommate Sam, reading through a destination wedding magazine by the light of our lamp (yes, we now have a lamp on our table! ha!).

Yesterday I went home to continue the tradition of baking Christmas cookies with my Mom. I only had a few hours to be there, so we weren’t able to go all-out like we usually do, but we had time to make a few goodies.
